Description

Crafted from high-quality aluminium, the 12 mm × 2 mm aluminium round tube offers an excellent balance of strength, lightweight design, and corrosion resistance. Its hollow round profile is ideal for a wide range of industrial, structural, DIY and decorative applications. Whether used in fabrication, furniture, or mechanical components, this tube delivers durability, ease of use, and aesthetic appeal.

 Key Features

  • Outer diameter: 12 mm; wall thickness: 2 mm

  • Lightweight yet robust — solid structural integrity without excessive weight

  • Highly corrosion resistant — suitable for outdoor and industrial environments

  • Smooth finish — clean look, attractive surface, easy to finish further (polish, anodise etc.)

  • Easy to cut, drill, machine, or weld — ideal for both precision work and general fabrication

  • Hollow section — useful for decorative elements, frames, supports, model work, etc.

  • Good strength-to-weight ratio — cost-efficient where reduced material weight matters
